The Orioles wasted no time in spoiling any type of shutout
in game two as the first 4 batters reached on two singles, a
double and a walk to score a run. With the bases loaded and
nobody out, Jesse Jones then struck out the next 3 hitters
to limit the damage to just one run.
Camden got the run back in the bottom of the 1st when Jacob
Robinson walked to start the frame. He used some pitches
that made their way to the backstop to move around the
bases, and eventually scored on a wild pitch. The run was
the 491st of his MVABL career, moving him past Dayton
Rangers legend Jonmarc Lippincott for the most in MVABL
history.
After a quick 2nd frame, Eric Jameson started the 3rd with a
single followed by a walk by Jacob Robinson to put two
runners aboard. Mike Hartman, who has 11 RBI over his last
5 games, then knocked both runs home with a single. Mike
now has the 2nd most RBI in the MVABL, trailing only Thomas
Troy of the Wild Boars.
Camden continued to push their lead in the 5th by scoring 4
more times to give them a 7-1 lead. Jacob Robinson, Jesse
Jones, and Mike Hartman all walked with one out to load the
bases. Chris Flaherty plated the first run with a sacrifice
fly, followed by RBI singles from Tyler Eaton and Max
Ramsey.
Jesse Jones didn’t need much run support in this one, as he
followed up his 11 strikeout performance in his previous
start with a career 13 strikeouts against the Orioles. He
allowed only the single run in his 5th victory of the season
while lowering his ERA to a sparkling 2.70 which is the 6th
best mark among eligible pitchers in the league.
The Redlegs game on Thursday night (8/4) against the Dodgers
was rained out, so they will look to push their winning
streak to 7 games on Sunday August 7th against the Wright
Knights at 1:00PM at Madison High School.
